Busch Series teams have also run this tire set-up at Kentucky . . . this left-side code (D-4078) has also been run by these teams with a different right-side code at both Texas and Chicagoland in 2007 . . . as on all NASCAR ovals greater than one mile in length, teams are required to run inner liners in all four tire positions at Kansas . . . air pressure in those inner liners should be 12-25 psi greater than that of the outer tire.
